Might this be NJ's old S430?

Looks close to it, although I'm not sure.

Traded in for a Brand new Mercedes-Benz after being originally purchased here at Glauser
Did he originally buy it from Glauser?

Looks very close and the options are similar if not exact too!

Too much of a coincidence...he just traded about 2 weeks ago and he had purchased the '06 430 in 10/06 so his mileage is about right..plus Glauser is his trade in/purchase dealer. More yes's than no's.

And traded in for a new Mercedes too, as the ad describes. But it's the "originally bought at Glauser" that's throwing me off.

That's my "old" car guys. I took deliver on 9/30/05, the date of the warranty. Also, there are few S430's equipped the way mine was and the List Price is the same as mine was. I would imagine the car will sell for about $2-3K below their asking price. I see the listing calls it a 2005, but it is a 2006 model. The car was purchased from Fletcher Jones in LV...a assumption by whoever wrote the copy....

even jack's old ride looks sweet! very well maintained - you hardly drove that thing jack! then again, you did not have it long either.

hopefully they did not bend you over that much on it. only $63.9. i would think an 06 s430 would fetch more?

what gorgeous machines - someday, someday.

The W220 market is pretty soft. I expected to take a hit when I committed to the S550...any car only 6 months old is going to get hit hard if traded in that quickly. I offered it at what I thought was a very fair price on this and another site and got no takers.

Glauser was the only dealer who offered me what I consider a fair deal on the car and a discount on the S550 that helped soften the blow. I lost some money but the S550 makes those thoughts all go away...the car is perfect.

Jack, you must be the envy of the neighborhood..

Do you get frequent comments, and questions on the car?
